Hi Gerry, Thanks for your tips. I tried to do what you suggested but the
computer siad that the Task Manager had been turned off my the admin. I am
the only one who fools with this thing and I can't imagine that I would do
that. How do I turn it back on? I could make my computer faster but I con't
know enough to know what files I can delete. The names are so much like the
necessary files and I'm afraid that I will delete something that makes my
computer function. Hope you can help me with the task manager.

Hi,

Scan your system for malware and other parasites. Here are some free
programs.

Adaware SE

Spybot - search and destroy

Trend Micro's Housecall

Kasperky Web Scanner

Once your system is cleaned and free of parasites, open the registry
(Start>Run and type regedit).

Navigate to the following sub key:
[HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]
and/or
[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]
Name: DisableTaskMgr
Type: DWORD
Value: 0 - Unrestricted; 1 - Restricted
Or the right-hand pane, delete "DisableTaskMgr".
